Oh just pardon the effing traitor already.

Once you’ve got your pants down and dick out, modesty is no longer an option.

You asshats made the decision to prosecute already and pretending that a predicated investigation wasn’t doesn’t change that, and it especially doesn’t change his lying about Turkey.

The Constitution according to Ol’Billy Barr, which according them is a construct that no matter what it says on the centuries old paper is pretzeled to be a dictatorship under Benadick Being’adick Donnie two scoops.

As if anyone left in Trump/Barr’s DOJ knows anything about the Constitution.

Compromise: let the DOJ have their way and then prosecute him again in 2021.

Quite the frivolous argument. Trump’s henchman Barr is desperate to do his master’s bidding to prevent Flynn from ever talking.

Flynn must know a lot of dirt on Trump and Russia.

It’s so dumb, I’m starting to wonder if Barr is sandbagging him and just the sneakiest member of The Resistance.

Did they really say “notwithstanding petitioner’s guilty plea”? Basically the argument is ignore the man behind the curtain?

To all the Bozos in the DOJ, from Barr on down to whoever else is responsible for this piece of trash. In case you hadn’t noticed, it is the courts, the Judiciary who interpret the Constitution, NOT YOU!

Please go fuck yourselves.

When the framers built an independent judiciary into the constitution what they really meant was a judiciary that would independently side with the president no matter what the evidence says.
